Heavy Sumo Guy (shortened as HSG or alternatively, Sumo Heavy) is a BLU Heavy TF2 Freak created by YouTube user LEtheCreator.
Appearance
HSG is even fatter than a typical Heavy. Aside from his pants and belt (and probably undergarments), he forgoes all the articles of clothing and accessories Heavies are issued. He wears a Humanitarian's Hachimaki over his Dread Knot hairstyle.
Personality and Behavior
Heavy Sumo Guy was a deeply patient and reserved martial artist. He never carried any sort of weapon, as he firmly believes in using only his mind and body to solve problems.
He is Ninjineer's friend and battle partner, though in contrast with the ninja, HSG was level-headed, focused, and serious. He is not very verbose, but when he does speak his words usually demonstrate his wisdom and toughness. As a teacher of wrestling and martial arts, he is very strict and sometimes uses questionable and/or harsh methods to train his students or get his point across. Still, he has a lot of trust in both his students and friends, and when he is together with Ninjineer, he can occasionally be seen smiling.
Powers and Abilities
A formidable mountain of thick fat and muscle, Heavy Sumo Guy's essentially covered in "armor" even while topless. Some body blows just bounce off, having little to no effect, and he can even resist bullets pretty well. Even being set on fire by Pyro's flamethrower does not appear to bother him much, even when a Scout was killed by the same flames.
Heavy Sumo Guy's physical strength is far superior than regular humans and possibly even high by Freak standards, defeating upper-mid rank (albeit frail) Freaks like Drunk Monk in a single attack. Unusually for a Heavy, HSG rarely uses his fists in a fight. Instead, he uses his large hands for palm strikes and other open-hand techniques, which seem just as (if not more) effective.
He has trained himself to not feel fatigue, or at least not as quickly as most people. He has admirable stamina and endurance, especially for someone so overweight. While he is not exactly nimble or fast on his feet, he has sharp reflexes and can jump amazingly high (after landing from such jumps, the ground usually shakes enough that people nearby lose their balance).
Last but not least, his incredible focused mind allows him to stay level-headed during entire fights, and this can prove very effective against foes that use trickery or employ taunts while fighting, such as Trollscout.
Faults and Weaknesses
- Heavy Sumo Guy is not usually a threat if he can be kept at a distance since he relies solely on physical moves.
- Although he can attack and react quickly, he is a slow runner, which only makes him worse when it comes to dealing with foes with long-range attacks. Likewise, he may be unable to evade projectiles larger than him.
- Heavy Sumo Guy prefers taking a direct approach to combat, not that he has much of a choice in the matter. His physique and fighting style make stealth or otherwise going unnoticed (when the situation calls for it) very difficult. Thankfully, he usually has Ninjineer to do that.
